Over the past few years, WWE has signed quite a few TNA Wrestling stars to its roster.

The likes of Jordynne Grace and Joe Hendry have made their way to WWE and were recently called up to the main roster.

Looking at the current TNA Wrestling landscape, there are other names that might be able to make a similar statement upon signing with WWE and make their way up the ladder in a major way.

Here are seven TNA Wrestling stars who could potentially sign with WWE.

7. The Righteous (Vincent & Dutch)

The Righteous were signed to AEW from 2023 to 2025

Signing with TNA Wrestling in December 2025, The Righteous have become one of the most prominent tag teams in the company.

Moose has been one of the biggest stars in TNA Wrestling since signing with the promotion in 2016.

Over the course of a decade with the company, Moose is a three-time TNA World Champion, two-time Grand Champion and a former X-Division Champion.

Considering his size, experience and ability in the ring, Moose would be an excellent addition to the WWE roster.

One of the most significant signings of 2026 for TNA Wrestling has been European standout Ricky Sosa.

Known for his “Bang, Bang, Sosa, Sosa” theme song and entrance, Sosa caught a ton of attention that has made him an exciting star to sign for any promotion.

While he has officially signed with TNA, Sosa has not been on television much and may be awaiting visa clearance.

As soon as he catches the eye of WWE, it feels like Sosa would be someone the company would be interested in bringing in long term.

4. Elayna Black

Former WWE star Cora Jade

Elayna Black was signed to WWE as Cora Jade from January 2021 to May 2025

At the start of 2026, Elayna Black signed with TNA Wrestling as a major acquisition for the company.

The former Cora Jade has become a regular fixture on TNA television and feels like someone who could become a top contender for the Knockouts World Title.

At just 25 years old, it always felt like Black could wind up back in WWE after being released from the promotion in May 2025.

Black re-signing with WWE would be interesting and might see her rise up the ladder quicker than she did in her first stint with the company.

3. The Hardys (Matt & Jeff Hardy)

In 2025, The Hardys made their return to WWE as part of the working relationship with TNA Wrestling.

In partnership with WWE NXT, Matt and Jeff Hardy made their presence felt by winning the NXT Tag Team Championship and getting into a feud with DarkState.

Since returning to TNA in 2024, The Hardys have become among the biggest stars and draws for the company.

Despite the status as top stars in the promotion, The Hardys feel likely to re-sign with WWE down the line for one final run to end their legendary careers.

2. Mike Santana

Since re-signing with TNA Wrestling in 2024, Mike Santana had a rapid rise up the ladder in the promotion.

Then in 2025, Santana captured the TNA World Championship for the first time and has become the face of the company.

Now a two-time TNA World Champion, Santana has been a vocal leader for the locker room and someone who has grown as a main event level talent.

After several appearances on WWE NXT over the past year, Santana feels more than ready to sign with the company when his TNA Wrestling contract expires later this year.

1. Leon Slater

Leon Slater has become someone pegged as the future of TNA Wrestling by fans, peers and legendary stars.

In 2025, Slater made history by becoming the youngest X-Division Champion of all time and then later tied the record for the longest reign in the title’s history.

‘The Youngest In Charge’ has garnered a great deal of attention thanks to his in-ring ability during his appearances on WWE NXT and even had the honor of performing on Saturday Night’s Main Event for John Cena’s Final Match in December 2025.

After standout performances on WWE programming, Slater feels like a no-brainer signing for the company and someone who has a bright future ahead of him.
